Wahl introduces New Lithium Ion Clipper Kit

WAHL® INTRODUCES FIRST-OF-ITS-KIND LITHIUM ION CLIPPER KIT

STERLING, ILL. (March 6, 2011) – Wahl, the first company to offer a lithium ion facial hair trimmer, is taking the same innovation to the home haircutting category. The Lithium Ion clipper offers superior performance, sleek design and unmatched versatility. The kit builds on Wahl’s legacy of innovation in the home haircutting category with products such as the Clip N’ Trim and Color Pro.

Powered by lithium ion technology, the clipper outperforms standard Wahl rechargeable clippers by providing up to two times the run time, clocking in at one hour and forty minutes on a full charge. This eliminates the need for frequent recharging, and provides a versatile solution for people that prefer to cut hair outside in locations such as the garage or patio. It also provides:

•15 minute quick charge for over 12 minutes of use, enough for a complete haircut

•Only three hours for a full charge

•Includes full-size detail trimmer in kit

The Lithium Ion clipper kit is a premium product that exemplifies Wahl’s innovation, quality and performance. The kit includes Wahl’s easy-to-use guide comb system and a handful of accessories to make home haircutting a breeze. It also includes a trimmer unit for quick upkeep around the ears and neckline. All Wahl clippers and trimmers feature finely ground and detailed blades for superior performance and one pass cutting.

The Lithium Ion also offers a sleek design and handle that fits nicely into the hand and clean-up is easy with a clipper body and head that permit rinse cleaning. It is also designed from durable chrome to

help extend the life of the product, and offers a five-year warranty.

The Lithium Ion Clipper Kit will be available in August 2011 for a MSRP of $69.99. More information about Wahl clipper kits is available at www.wahlhaircuts.com.
